Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>We will use the collected cells to obtain pediatric HAE cultures. We will use<br /><br>these cultures as an ex vivo model to study NETs induced changes in the context<br /><br>of RSV infection of the pediatric airways. We will perform measurements on<br /><br>airway mucus (protein expression) and airway epithelial damage (necrosis,<br /><br>apoptosis, loss of differentiation, loss of barrier function, apoptotic gene<br /><br>expression, inflammation markers and inflammatory pathways). </p><br>
